It'll Come Naturally

"You know how good I am at driving, Kevin," retorted Daisy. Then she looked at Leena and gave the lady a motherly smile. "Leena, we'll go. Take good care of yourself."

"OK, I will. Thank you, Daisy." Leena had not planned to stay in army base tonight since Kevin had never mentioned it to her. Thus, she got a little confused earlier upon hearing what Kevin said. Nonetheless, she trusted Kevin completely, so she just smiled through it all and never said a word.

They were still bidding their casual goodbyes when Edward suddenly walked up to Leena and gave her a brotherly hug without any ado. She was still in shock when he whispered, "Just follow your heart. Don't think too much about it." After that, Edward let her go and left that place together with his family without even looking back.

All of them were left puzzled about what Edward did. They got no clue about what he said to Leena at all. Thus, Daisy was extremely curious while driving away from the army base.

"What did you just whisper to Leena?" She finally managed to ask.

"You want to know?" replied Edward as a mysterious smile appeared on his face. It looked as if he was trying to tease her.

"You don't have to tell me. I don't want to know anyway," said Daisy proudly as she turned her eyes to the road ahead.

"Woman, can't you just be patient?" Edward was utterly surprised when he suddenly turned to Daisy. He never expected her to give up that soon. 'Can't she just give me a damn?' thought Edward.

"Why? I don't have to know." On the other hand, Daisy was not a gossip girl. She just asked because she thought that what Edward did was a little strange.

"You have to know." Edward was playing with his temper again. He hated being ignored and what his wife was doing wasn't how he liked it.

"What? I said I didn't want to know. Why are you forcing me to know? It's so typical of you!" Frustratedly, Daisy shook her head. There were really some days when she couldn't figure out Edward. Didn't Edward know how hard it was to handle someone as headstrong as him? "How can you say that? I am your husband, Daisy!" accused Edward as his eyes turned colder.

"Stop it! I'm driving." Although Daisy was confident about her driving skill, she didn't trust others. Moreover, t was the holiday season and she was sure that there would be a lot of drunk-drivers around. She had to be more careful in case anything happened to them. "Fine. I'll talk to you later," said Edward with a defeated sigh. He decided to stop picking on her since she demanded him to. However, he ended up thinking about a lot of things as soon as he shut up. Meanwhile, Justin was in the backseat. He was quiet while watching them. He was actually wondering if there was anything wrong between the two.

Back in the army base, Leena followed Kevin to his office. This was her very first time to step inside his workplace, thus, she was curious about everything.

"Come on. Drink. Your hands are so cold. Are you not dressed thick enough?" Kevin poured her a cup of warm water and thought, 'I should get her a glove or something.'

"Don't worry. It is just that my hands turn instantly cold when the wind is cold. I'm okay, Kevin! I'm warm!" said Leena with a sweet smile. For a moment, she wondered if her poor resistance to cold was the reason why she was so weak.

"Are you hungry? Would you like to have a snack or something?" Kevin wanted to keep her with him tonight. Thus, he decided not to let her go anywhere.

"No. I already ate too much. I am still full now." Leena pouted her lips. Just the thought of food was already making her hate it. It was weird how everyone seemed to be so afraid of her being hungry. She would definitely gain more than ten pounds after this holiday. "Oh, okay. How about my baby? Did you feel anything?" A bright smile cracked Kevin's lips upon mentioning about his baby. What else could he ask for? He already had beautiful wife who loved him so much, and now, he was about to have a precious little child! "Your baby is fine. I'm only three months pregnant and I don't feel anything yet." Leena smiled back at him as she spoke. It was funny how Kevin seemed to be more nervous than her since she got pregnant.

"You're right. I need to work on some documents. Think about this place as our home. Let me know if you're bored. I'll ask Lee to take you back to the residential building." Kevin showed her some military newspapers. He honestly got no idea if she would like these things or not.

"I'm fine as long as I can stay with you. I will not feel bored." Leena had missed Kevin so much during his mission. Just the thought that he was now finally around was enough for her to feel very happy. Moreover, how could she be bored when someone as handsome as Kevin was just around?

"Then I'll work first. You can lie down on the sofa if you feel tired." His office didn't have any temperature control system. Kevin was worried that she might catch a cold, so he took off his army coat and carefully wrapped it around Leena.

"Haha! Are you trying to kill me with that coat?" Leena joked out as she thought that he was too nervous. In fact, it was warmer inside his office than the outside. Even the temperature outside wasn't really as cold as she thought. "Nonsense! Don't say that word again. That's bad luck! Put your clothes on. I don't want you to catch a cold," snapped Kevin. His face was suddenly serious and Leena couldn't help but feel intimidated with him.

"Okay... Fine. I'll wear it. Just go to work. I will take good care of myself." Forcing a smile, Leena looked up at Kevin and thought, 'Does this guy really think that I'm that vulnerable?'

A few minutes more and Kevin was already reviewing the documents on his desk very carefully. These papers were so important that he couldn't allow himself to make mistakes.

On the other hand, Leena decided to read the newspapers he handed her. However, she got bored with it after a while, thus, she stopped. She then rested her back against the sofa and just watched Kevin until she felt sleepy. She carefully lay down on the sofa and after a few minutes, she fell asleep.

Kevin burst out laughing as soon as he saw Leena sleeping. I know that your reading won't last long, ' he thought. He walked over to his wife and tucked her with his army coat gently. He bent down to her afterwards and gently pressed his lips against hers. After making sure that she was comfortable, Kevin walked back to his desk while thinking, 'I have to hurry up and get my work done. I badly need to take her home early.'0000000NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
